ESCP Business School has opened applications for the September 2027 intake of its Bachelor in Management (BSc). The admissions page was updated on 29 October 2026 and the first application deadline is already close: 18 November 2026 for Berlin, London, Madrid, Paris and Turin. For families comparing European options, this is one of the few undergraduate programmes where students live and study in three different countries over three years, and the calendar rewards those who move early.
The 2027 application calendar: six rounds, first results before Christmas
ESCP runs a rolling admission system organised in rounds. For Berlin, London and Madrid, the published 2027 calendar is the following: apply by 18 November 2026 for a decision no later than 18 December 2026; by 14 January 2027 for 12 February; by 17 February for 18 March; by 23 March for 23 April; by 20 April for 14 May; and by 20 May 2027 for 15 June. Paris follows the same sequence. Turin had an additional early round that closed on 27 October 2026, so its next deadline is also 18 November.
Two practical consequences. First, a candidate who applies in Round 1 knows the outcome before the January rush of UK and US deadlines, which makes the rest of the application season much easier to plan. Second, because admission is rolling, strong files submitted early compete while the largest number of places is still available.
One portal only: UCAS, Common App, Parcoursup or direct
ESCP accepts several application routes for the BSc, but candidates must use one portal only. Applicants who want London in their study track can go through UCAS with institution code E79 and course code N200. Students at American or international schools can apply through the Common App by searching for ESCP Business School. Everyone else can apply directly on the school’s online platform.
One rule matters for students in the French system: candidates preparing the French baccalaureate who want Paris to be an option among the first-year campuses must apply through Parcoursup. We explained how this French platform works for international families in our guide to Parcoursup and France’s elite track. Choosing the wrong portal cannot be fixed after submission, so this decision should be made before anything else.
What it costs in 2027
The application fee is 80 euros, reduced to 40 euros for candidates who have already applied to the Bachelor in Management, Science and Technology. Tuition for the 2027 entry is 17,900 euros per year for students holding a European passport and 23,900 euros per year for non-European students, plus 2,900 euros of additional fees covering administration and student services; ESCP notes these totals are indicative. Admitted students confirm their place with a 3,500 euro deposit that is deducted from the enrolment fee.
Scholarships can cover between 10% and 50% of tuition fees depending on the candidate’s situation. If funding is a key criterion for your family, our overview of European business school scholarships shows what is realistic and when to ask.
How ESCP selects: file first, then an interview with faculty
The process has two stages. The online application gathers transcripts, a personal statement, a CV and language certificates. Successful applicants are then invited to an online interview with at least two people, including faculty members, which assesses motivation, the match between the profile and the curriculum, and personality. There is no way to improvise this: the interview rewards candidates who can explain precisely why a three-country bachelor fits their academic project, campus by campus.
The programme itself is a three-year, 180 ECTS degree taught in English, with the first year in Berlin, London, Paris or Turin and the following years rotating across the five campuses. Graduates can earn French, German and UK degrees, subject to the school’s requirements.
Why the 2027 intake is attractive
ESCP’s brand has rarely been stronger. In the Financial Times Master in Management ranking published in September 2026, the school announced a 6th place worldwide, 5th in Europe and 1st in the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Italy and Poland. That reputation matters to bachelor applicants too, because many BSc graduates continue into ESCP’s graduate programmes or use the brand to enter other top masters: our guide to Masters in Management admissions shows how that path works. Candidates interested in combining ESCP with a French political science education should also look at the Sciences Po and ESCP dual bachelor, a separate track with its own calendar.
How Your Dream School can help
Our team has accompanied 86 students admitted to ESCP’s bachelor programmes and 32 to its masters, out of more than 1,300 students accompanied since 2018. Figures taken from our admissions database, 2019 to 2025 intakes. They are minimums: the 2017-2018 and 2025-2026 intakes are not yet consolidated. Families rate the experience 5/5 on Google across 160+ Google reviews.
If you are targeting the 18 November round, the file needs to be in motion now: positioning, personal statement, interview preparation and the portal decision all interact. Start with our bachelor admissions coaching page or our dedicated college counselling for international students, then book a strategy call with our team to build a realistic plan for the 2027 intake.
